The two great commandments are given by Our Blessed Lord in Matthew 22:37-40:

And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets."

The "new commandment" is given by Our Blessed Lord in John, Chapter 13, verses 34-35:

I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another. This is how all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another."

What did the Roman Catholic Church want to keep out of the new world?

First of all, there is no "Roman" Catholic Church. It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. Secondly, ever diocese is a particular Church, if you are just asking about the Pope, or the Bishops in Spain, then you will have to ask that question. Finally, history records that the explorers in the new world, brought the Church with them, in the person of priests and friars, and the "Church" fully supported them in this.


Is the name Catholic Church Biblical?

.Catholic AnswerThe name "Catholic" came about before the Bible (New Testament) was written completely, and definitely before it was put together in the fourth century. The "Church" part is in the Bible, but not the word "Catholic." Members of the Catholic Church wrote the Bible, and then Pope Damasus and the Council of Rome ordered which books definitively made up the Canon of the New Testament. In other words, the Bible depends upon the Catholic Church, not the other way around. So, no, the words "Catholic Church" do not appear in the New Testament.
